"I confess, I’m a “kaleidoscope junkie.” I see them as a metaphor for life & personal transformation. They create an infinite world of possibilities. The mirrors inside reflect & project our point of view into something new, with the mandalas created - our daily chaos is re-ordered. I enjoy reclaiming what has been abandoned. I make my kaleidoscopes out of discarded things I find in the desert surrounding the tiny town of Darwin - a post-apocalyptic landscape studded with mines, abandoned cars, broken glass and old tin can dumps. The alchemy of time has transformed the desert’s trash into treasures. Each one a rusty jewel. Kaleidoscopes make the ordinary more extraordinary re - engaging the viewer to look at the world with a renewed sense of wonder, reclaiming the child within."
